alt Hacker NewsI'm very interested in your product. However, I'd like to report a strange phenomenon: whenever I open your website's homepage, although it doesn't seem to use a lot of memory, my Chrome becomes extremely laggy, and afterwards my entire Mac OS becomes very slow. The first time I encountered this, I couldn't determine the cause. I closed all applications and rebooted my computer. After working perfectly for a while, I reopened your website, and my Chrome and OS became almost unresponsive. After rebooting my computer again, without opening any other applications, just Chrome and your website, and it immediately became nearly unresponsive again. Therefore, while I'm not entirely sure, it seems highly related to your website.

It could be the three.js shader on the page that they use which renders in the background. I think you may be able to disable shaders to test but not sure. Been awhile.
Yeah, I had the same experience. It made the page basically unusable for me.
Oh wow, same thing on my oldish Macbook Air from 2018, using Firefox. Completely unusable.
It's good of you not to jump to any conclusions!
Same on my low end android phone
It is also terrible to scroll on iOS with power saver turned on.
Same here.
We fixed this, please try again, also if anyone knows how to run a Three.js shader without exploding people's laptops I am very open to suggestions.
